After much dancing the mighty Byzantine Empire finally squared off in a head to head battle against the Brotherhood of Steel.

The battle was hard fought, it was bloody, and survivors were few. Those who lived through the great battle of this era were WITNESS to the lasting legacy of the Byzantine Empire, and also to the valiant effort by the army fielded by the Brotherhood of Steel.

The end result:

Spoiler:

VICTORY against the Brotherhood of Steel, though at a heavy cost. The survivors will bear the wounds of the battle, both physical and mental for the rest of their days. They will stand as witnesses to the battle of Iraqi-Fields and the legacy it has on the tide of the great war between the Eastern Coalition and the Western Union.

Where does the war go from here? What new developments will happen? Only time will tell.

Great battle, nice victory. I am quite honestly surprised with the result, must've been the split chassis but oh well, we really did the best we could've done in that situation, so I'm not ashamed of it Now, back to rebuilding... Should I ask VG for some protips?

The mixed chassis was a result of BoS changing chassis halfway through the round after BYZ killed 8 of their members tank armies without breaking armor. BoS decided to rebuild Vech instead.

AND, Pantera of all people launched his 35 squads at the wrong outpost when we did our EoT attack so we had 10 people and 288 squads instead of 323.

And then on top of that one of our members turned 10 of his spam squads before the battle for unexplained reasons.

So when BoS did their 16 ion cannons BYZ was down 35 squads from what we had planned (which is not only a good amount of armor, but beam vech too, AND there were 10 spam squads that had a small % chance of getting ioned instead of a real squad).

No excuses here, we won after all, but it was a VERY poor victory in terms of performance. 130 AI, 350 AV, and 250 AT vech surviving is not ideal at all :/

Oh well, it was still an awesome battle and I am SURE there will be more!

For those interested and don't want to go searching, here is the BR from the first large battle between BYZ and BoS:
